Lagenandra meeboldii 'Bleeding Heart' is a rare and highly sought-after aquarium and paludarium plant, admired for its striking leaf coloration. New leaves emerge in shades of deep pink to red, fading into rich green as they mature, often with a subtle metallic sheen. This bold display makes it an excellent focal point in aquascapes.
Slow-growing and hardy, 'Bleeding Heart' thrives in nutrient-rich substrate and benefits from CO₂ and strong lighting for the most vibrant coloration. While it can be grown submerged in aquariums, it also does exceptionally well emersed in paludariums, where its leaf colors intensify.
